Mitsubishi hits the sales record in Russia

As a result of October of 2017, AS Rus Bank issued a record number of loans. The increase compared to the previous month was 33%, and in comparison with October of 2016, sales grew more than 3 times. As the press service of JSC MS Bank Rus informed, from January to October of 2017 compared to the same period in 2016, the growth was almost 100% in the number of issued loans. The loan portfolio of the bank reached 8.5 billion rubles, which is almost 1.5 times more than in October of 2016.

According to the results of the first nine months of 2017, the profit of MS Rus under IFRS was 65.98 million rubles. "For the first time since 2014, when we began to lend to retail customers, we achieved such high rates of credit sales and reached the planned profit targets. We are going to continue to increase the growth rates, thanks to close cooperation with the official distributor of Mitsubishi cars in Russia - "MMS Rus". It should be noted that in November we continue to offer our customers a particularly attractive lending environment: 0% interest rate for 3 years at Mitsubishi Outlander and Mitsubishi Pajero Sport," - says the Chairman of the Management Board of AS Bank Rus, Savaii Norihiro.

As previously reported "AUTOSTAT", by the results of ten months of 2017, Mitsubishi's sales in our country were 17,406 cars, which is more by 23% than the figure for the same period of the last year. The bestseller of the brand in the Russian market remains the crossover Outlander, whose sales since the beginning of the year grew by 45% and they were 13,140 cars. As noted, the position of the model intensified, including due to the inclusion of Outlander in the state program of preferential car loans. The second most popular Mitsubishi model was the SUV Pajero Sport, which in January-October was chosen by 2671 customers.
